Who is the Richtofen in Blood of the Dead?

The Richtofen in Blood of the Dead is a central character in the Call of Duty: Zombies storyline. There are two main versions of Richtofen: Primis Richtofen and Post-Revelations Richtofen. In this article, we will explore the character of Richtofen and his significance in the Blood of the Dead storyline.

Primis Richtofen

Primis Richtofen is our playable character. He is a German scientist who was part of the Ultimis team, a group of scientists who were tasked with stopping the zombies outbreak. He was presumed frozen under Blood of the Dead and was freed once Primis Richtofen used his blood to power the Warden’s machine.

Post-Revelations Richtofen

Post-Revelations Richtofen is the second Richtofen, who wears the Red Cross Uniform seen in Revelations. He was presumably frozen under Blood of the Dead and was freed once Primis Richtofen used his blood to power the Warden’s machine.

The Sacrifice

In Blood of the Dead, Richtofen sacrifices himself to break the Cycle, thus causing Post-Revelations Richtofen to come out of the cryogenic pod. Post-Revelations Richtofen tells Nikolai that he is the key to defeating Dr. Monty, who betrayed the Primis for creating a paradox because of their existence.

Who Killed Richtofen?

Richtofen was killed by Sergeant Cedric Popkin of the 24th Machine Gun Company of the First Australian Imperial Force. He fired his Vickers machine gun at the red Fokker DR1 triplane as it banked to the left and fled to avoid fire from Lewis guns manned by Robert Buie and Snowy.

Why is Richtofen Alive?

In the Call of Duty: Zombies comics, it is revealed that Undead Richtofen ended up being teleported through the Dimension 63 timeline, thanks to his Primis version of himself. This allowed him to become alive again, but with a different fate.

Are Eddie and Richtofen the Same Person?

Eddie is an alternate child incarnation of Edward Richtofen in the Revelations timeline. He lives in a perfect universe with Samantha Maxis, along with the reincarnated original child versions of "Tank" Dempsey, Nikolai Belinski, and Takeo Masaki. This means that Eddie is a younger version of Richtofen, but not the same person.

Richtofen’s Soul

Richtofen lost his fight with Maxis and was punished by being trapped in a zombie. With Richtofen defeated, Maxis then used his power to pluck Samantha’s soul from Richtofen’s body on the Moon, and placed her in Agartha alongside him.
